Class Foam::functionObjects::turbulenceIntensity Description Evaluates and writes the turbulence intensity field 'I'. The turbulence intensity field 'I' is the root-mean-square of the turbulent velocity fluctuations normalised by the local velocity magnitude: \f[ I \equiv \frac{\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}\, k}}{U} \f] To avoid spurious extrema and division by 0 I is limited to 1 where the velocity magnitude is less than the turbulent velocity fluctuations. Example of function object specification: \verbatim functions { . . . turbulenceIntensity { type turbulenceIntensity; libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so"); } . . . } \endverbatim or using the standard configuration file: \verbatim functions { . . . #includeFunc turbulenceIntensity . . . } \endverbatim See also Foam::functionObject Foam::functionObjects::fvMeshFunctionObject Foam::functionObjects::logFiles Foam::functionObjects::writeLocalObjects Foam::functionObjects::timeControl SourceFiles turbulenceIntensity.C \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ #ifndef turbulenceIntensity_functionObject_H #define turbulenceIntensity_functionObject_H #include "fvMeshFunctionObject.H" #include "logFiles.H" #include "writeLocalObjects.H" // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // namespace Foam { namespace functionObjects { /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*\ Class turbulenceIntensity Declaration \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ class turbulenceIntensity : public fvMeshFunctionObject, public logFiles, public writeLocalObjects { // Private Member Functions //- File header information virtual void writeFileHeader(const label i); public: //- Runtime type information TypeName("turbulenceIntensity"); // Constructors //- Construct from Time and dictionary turbulenceIntensity ( const word& name, const Time& runTime, const dictionary& dict ); //- Disallow default bitwise copy construction turbulenceIntensity(const turbulenceIntensity&) = delete; //- Destructor virtual ~turbulenceIntensity(); // Member Functions //- Read the turbulenceIntensity data virtual bool read(const dictionary&); //- Return the list of fields required virtual wordList fields() const { return wordList::null(); } //- Calculate the turbulenceIntensity field virtual bool execute(); //- Write the turbulenceIntensity field virtual bool write(); // Member Operators //- Disallow default bitwise assignment void operator=(const turbulenceIntensity&) = delete; }; // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // } // End namespace functionObjects } // End namespace Foam // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // #endif // ************************************************************************* //
